Default Tag

The /default tag in Limio is a versatile tool that serves multiple purposes. It is effectively synonymous with the root URL (/) of your website and plays a key role for Pages, , and as a fallback page.

/default as the Homepage

When you set /default as the tag for a Page in the Limio app, it becomes your website's homepage. For example:

  1. Imagine your shop is hosted at www.limio-shop.com.

  2. In Limio, you create a new Page and assign /default as its tag.

  3. After publishing, the Page will be accessible at both:

    • www.limio-shop.com/default

    • www.limio-shop.com (the root URL).

This means /default is functionally equivalent to / on your domain.

/default in Limio Journeys

The /default tag can also be used as a starting point for a Limio Journey. When configured as the starting point:

  • All visitors to your root URL (www.limio-shop.com) will be directed through the conditions defined in the journey.

  • Ensure the following before setting /default as the starting point:

    1. Review the Journey Conditions: Confirm all conditions are configured correctly.

    2. Verify Linked Pages: Make sure the Pages in the conditions are live by clicking 'Show page details'.

Once verified, update the starting point to /default and save. This makes the journey active for your homepage. You can test this by navigating to your domain (e.g. www.limio-shop.com) and verifying the behaviour.

If a user attempts to access a URL that Limio cannot resolve, they will be redirected to /default. Essentially, /default also serves as the 404 page for your site.


Key Considerations

  • Double-Check Before Publishing: Because /default is critical for routing all users visiting your homepage. Ensure journeys and pages tied to /default are fully configured and functioning as expected.

  • Testing: Always test the behaviour of /default by accessing your domain and confirming the routing and page content.
